Hemanth Yamijala updated HADOOP-2404:
-------------------------------------


bq. May be we should just declare that this change is incompatible and not 
provide any conversion of the changed parameters at all. We cannot provide true 
compatibility. Whoever relied on the default port usage expecting (consciously 
or unconsciously) them to be rolled if they are busy, would have to explicitly 
specify 0-ports. This means the configuration should be changed, so users might 
change the names as well.

I feel this is a fair argument. We are OK to make this change in our 
application.

> HADOOP-2185 removed the following configuration parameters:
> {noformat}
> dfs.secondary.info.port
> dfs.datanode.port
> dfs.info.port
> mapred.job.tracker.info.port
> tasktracker.http.port
> {noformat}
> and changed the following configuration parameters:
> {noformat}
> dfs.secondary.info.bindAddress
> dfs.datanode.bindAddress
> dfs.info.bindAddress
> mapred.job.tracker.info.bindAddress
> mapred.task.tracker.report.bindAddress
> tasktracker.http.bindAddress
> {noformat}
> without a backward-compatibility story.
> Lots are applications/cluster-configurations are prone to fail hence, we need 
> a way to keep things working as-is for 0.16.0 and remove them for 0.17.0.
